4D Business Consulting as approved consulting firm by EBRD Business Advisory Services (BAS)
enables MSMEs to access a diverse range of consulting services by facilitating projects with 4D
Business Consulting on a cost-sharing basis.
Direct assistance to enhance enterprise performance
is combined with systemic market development activities to create sustainable and commercially
viable infrastructures of MSME support in the Bank’s countries of operations. TAM and BAS aim to
prepare enterprises for future investment, including potential EBRD-financed projects. In 2010,
23 TAM/BAS clients received €106 million from EBRD investments and a further 18 reached concept
review stage. Also in 2010 a new strategy was agreed for these programmes that will bring them
fully in line with the EBRD’s Banking operations and its objectives as stated in the fourth
Capital Resources Review (CRR4).
